ABSTRACT:
One or two linear arrays of photodetectors are combined with optical elements to form an arrangement capable of determining the X-Y location of a focused laser beam or other light spot. The resulting arrangement is characterized by low cost and by excellent resolution, stability and linearity. Moreover, the arrangement provides output data that can be easily and quickly processed. The combination is adapted, for example, for use with zone plates in aligning masks and wafers in semiconductor fabrication.
